But do you not see him saying my logic is wrong? I am trying to find out where he got the idea. It is good that he agrees 50% with me, but his logic h...

He quoted my ID in his post, so the Forum emailed me saying that Banno quoted me in his post, so I was replying to him. Well, he thinks my reasoning i...

If you discuss a topic under different definitions of the key concept with the others, then you will not be able to reach the agreed conclusion. But f...

Why do you want to prove (t?e)?(¬t?¬e) is equivalent to A <-> B? You too are missing the point here. As you put, your conclusion Cogito is invalid is ...

Please note. In the Internet truth table, P and Q has the truth values, which were given as either T or F. Hence they can make axiomatic assumptions. ...

You seem to be just citing what is on the internet or textbook for symbolic logic truth table. For proof process, you must apply your own reasoning to...
March 30, 2024 at 01:37
Your hypothesis make no sense. Do you reject the standard meaning of "therefore" from the dictionaries? Symbolic logic works for all the languages in ...
March 30, 2024 at 01:35
Could you forward your full explanation why it is? You obviously don't seem know what had been tried there for the proof. Do you even understand what ...

It sounds like the first priority is to define what freewill is. Then you could proceed for further clarifications and discussions.

I read K. many years ago, but haven't come across anything on sexism at all at the time of my reading K. He is known to have broken the marriage promi...

Interesting point. I wouldn't describe Cogito as some insane moronic babble. But it is obvious that it has many rational incongruities to be classed a...

Not even in your dreams?
March 29, 2024 at 14:20
None of them are. Not scoffing, but would like to hear the more elaborated arguments on the idea why electron shell arrangement is solid. First of all...

The main problem with panpsychism is that all the non-living objects in the universe including the universe itself, refuse to respond in intelligible ...

Isn't free will only valid when you had choice? Most things you have listed as you have done, but don't want to do them seem nothing to do with freewi...

People die. Philosophies never die.
March 29, 2024 at 11:09
Agreed. :up: You still need to give some merit to Cogito. It is undeniable that it is a historical byproduct of ideas, which made start for the new ph...

Thoughts can be delusional too.

Great explanation. Very informative and nicely put. :up: Was he? Never knew that. Any particular reason for him had been so? Or just a social trend at...

Afterlife is not that vacuous concept as some folks make out. It depends on how much credibility we give to our reason. If we blindly trust our reason...
March 27, 2024 at 18:44
Good advice TM. Yeah I left the thread while back, but they kept on writing to me with the distorted facts, hence I dropped back in briefly to clarify...
March 27, 2024 at 18:19
No I am not. :) I was trying to learn about it better. I kept getting more books on the topic until I find the best one. Ended up with about 10 of the...
March 27, 2024 at 18:07
It is not good idea to converse with anyone who distorts the facts. That's all. It is just too cumbersome to keep correcting the continuing distortion...
March 27, 2024 at 17:53
You are in my To Ignore list. So don't waste your time writing to me. Thanks.
March 27, 2024 at 17:47
Because of your tendency keep writing posts blindly without checking what the others have written, I stopped reading your posts seriously. Just for yo...
March 27, 2024 at 17:45
You also seem to be not able to read English sentences properly. How could anyone discuss anything with you when you cannot read, but distort the othe...
March 27, 2024 at 17:40
Sorry mate. There is nothing making sense in your claim. You neither seem to know anything about Descartes nor logic or metaphysics. All I can advise ...
March 27, 2024 at 17:10
Problem with Afterlife is that it is a term which cannot be perceived or verified both empirically and analytically. Empirically, no one has seen the ...
March 27, 2024 at 16:35
Logically, semantically, and metaphysically Cogito doesn't make sense at all. "I am thinking." loses its credibility and meaning, as soon as the utter...
March 27, 2024 at 16:05
I agree. Logicism itself could be a huge thread itself on its own. I have 2 books by Dummett on Frege, and they are over 1000 pages. I have about 10 d...
March 27, 2024 at 09:42
Of course they are. All being has unique properties. When you exist, you are in some location i.e. a physical space on the earth a city or town or up ...
March 27, 2024 at 09:36
How do you know it was an accurate translation? Anyway, "I am thinking" is no much different from "I think" in terms of not able to link to "I am". An...

I had my dinner, therefore I was hungry. :roll:
March 26, 2024 at 18:15
Good point. Do you have some example arguments for that?
March 26, 2024 at 18:13
No publication on Descartes says "I am thinking, therefore I am." That sounds like your imagination. It clearly says "I think, therefore I am." Here "...
March 26, 2024 at 18:04
Conclusion is always consequent of the premises. You never conclude something, then list premises afterwards. Or like ByLaw suggested, you can never c...
March 26, 2024 at 17:55
Observation and thinking are totally different mental operations. You are mixing the two, and it seems the source of your confusion.
March 26, 2024 at 17:51
I do. I am saying it. I think it is a more meaningful statement than "I think, therefore I am." Saying "I think, therefore I am." is like saying "I am...
March 26, 2024 at 17:36
You have agreed that Therefore is to mean "result of", "consequence of" here. Result and consequence is clearly chronological and cause-effect nature....
March 26, 2024 at 17:33
Please google Therefore for its meaning. It is everywhere. No need for link. I swim therefore I am wet is correct. I am wet, therefore I swim, is not ...
March 26, 2024 at 16:08
My definition for Therefore is standard definition from any dictionaries on internet. It is nothing special, and nothing obscure. Therefore is to mean...
March 26, 2024 at 16:05
Yeah, no blaming you. It is a bit irritating to see him popping up with most smarmy useless comments with nothing useful or helpful contributions to t...
March 26, 2024 at 16:03
I am saying to you that my definition of "Therefore" is from the dictionaries, not invention of mine.
March 26, 2024 at 16:00
You have your peeping wonder pal popped up there with usual smarmy comments. Sorry I am not sure what you are even talking about. Now you are talking ...
March 26, 2024 at 15:58
Do you not recall you suddenly out of blue, clashing into my post with your saying "the other folks don't agree with you. so you are wrong"? I was the...
March 26, 2024 at 15:54
For checking out definitions, sure it is a must. But for saying "the other folks don't agree with you." Or UOC said otherwise, and basing that for you...
March 26, 2024 at 15:51
What makes you think my definitions were my own invention?
March 26, 2024 at 15:48
Words are lost at your groundless babbles. Do you realise my post were written after carefully checking the official sources for the definition?
March 26, 2024 at 15:47
Yes, I am not sure on your point of your claim that my post was wrong. I think you said, the other folks don't agree, and UOC says differently.
